    Kutani Pottery.

    May 17, 2024 in Japan ⋅ ☀️ 20 °C

    Next stop, the Kutani Pottery where they produce handmade porcelain. It has been a family pottery for many generations.

    Every piece is totally hand made, takes four months to produce and it is exquisite.

    Their porcelain is priced to reflect that manufacturing process.

    Walked to another hotel for dinner, a “western style” fixed menu. It was excellent. Four courses, nice crockery, silver cutlery and great service - we could have been in a fine hotel anywhere.
